Local Wine Events

The Earth Day Food & Wine Festival is a weekend celebration of award-winning food and wine grown on California's scenic Central Coast. Enjoy the feature event on Saturday afternoon, and if you'd like, join us for barrel tastings, cooking demonstrations, live music, and vineyard tours throughout the weekend.

The wine festival is held at the historic Santa Margarita Ranch with over 200 purveyors of sustainably produced food and wine. Growers, vintners, and chefs come together to serve delicious one of a kind dishes with locally sourced fruits, vegetables, meats, cheeses, olive oils, and more. Enjoy live music, a silent auction, unlimited samples of local cuisine, and meet the farmers who grow great food and wine while nurturing a healthy environment.

You can feel good about this event's minimal footprint with our extensive recycling and compost program, plastic reduction policy, solar powered entertainment stage, and countywide shuttle services.
